Abstract

It is shown that quantum-nondemolition-mediated feedback is able to preserve the interference fringes of the superposition of macroscopically distinguishable quantum states.

Continuous Feedback and Macroscopic Coherence

Paolo Tombesi, David Vitali

We show that a model, recently introduced for quantum nondemolition measurements of a quantum observable, can be adapted to obtain a measurement scheme which is able to slow down the destruction of macroscopic coherence due to the measurement apparatus.

We present a protocol for the generation of superpositions of states with distinguishable field amplitudes in an optical cavity by quantum nondemolition photon number measurements and coherent feeding of the cavity.

Optical feedback from quantum non-demolition measurements: How to realize a measurement apparatus to observe macroscopic quantum coherence

Paolo Tombesi, David Vitali

We show how a squeezed bath can be obtained by means of a suitable feedback of the output signal corresponding to a Quantum Non-Demolition (QND) measurement of an observable. We also show that a quantum non-demolition mediated feedback is able to preserve the interference fringes of the superposition of macroscopically distinguishable quantum states.

Generation of macroscopically distinguishable quantum states and detection by the squeezed-vacuum technique

Paolo Tombesi, Antonio Mecozzi

Here it is shown that, for a wide class of nonlinear Hamiltonians, an essentially classical initial state will evolve into the coherent superposition of distinguishable quantum states. The detection of the interference fringes can be performed by beating the light leaving the nonlinear optical medium with light from a local oscillator. A model for the loss in the detection apparatus is introduced. The squeezed-vacuum technique is introduced finally as a means of enhancing the interference fringes displaying the distinguishable quantum state.
